Not only in Europe, more than 53 million wild birds are legally shot down by hunters each year, but also in other countries.
Several countries on the Mediterranean are famous for mass killing of migratory as resident birds. Lebanon is no exception and perhaps one of the worst culpits.
The estimated number of illegally killed birds in Lebanon is more than 2,600,000 annually.
Along the east-west roads, every twenty meter stands a hunter, who fires on every bird silhouette that flies over him. This sport is practiced by everyone, from rich to poor. Still mainly by the Christian Lebanese.
During the time that the birds migrate, cars full of hunters drive along the mountain roads or are lined up. Ready to shoot all what moves within their distance.
